Move over Rambo, this Penguin means business - Time Waster

Clearly fed up with the penguin's generally soft and cuddly image, the lead character in Penguinz is Hell-bent on changing that perception. Antarctica's a dangerous place, after all, and he's kicking ass and taking names.

Ok, fine. There may not be polar bears in Antarctica. Nor are there Eskimos. But if you're put off by either of those things, chances are good that you're not likely to play a game where a penguin defends himself with an Desert Eagle, M-16, or chainsaw.

On easy mode, Penguinz isn't much of challenge. Still, it's a good way to get your feet wet before trying the harder modes. Make sure to collect all the booty that appears to recharge your health, top off your ammo, and pad your wallet. Cash is important, as it allows you to purchase a total of nine weapons and dozens of upgrades like a laser scope and grenade launcher.

Apart from the different enemies you encounter in normal levels, there are four boss battles to test your mettle.

Handy tip: backing away from oncoming foes and firing will get you out of a lot of sticky situations.
